In the next month I am taking a few short trips to New York City! I haven’t been back to New York since October and am dying to run through my city once again! Trip agenda ( / hopes): dinner at Cookshop, take a Soul Cycle class, shop at Bergdorfs, drinks at Refinery Rooftop, visit friends, brunch at Sarabeth’s, and walk around the city as much as I possibly can! Both trips are going to be short, but I am planning on packing in as many things possible.

Traveling is something I loathe–not the destination part, the journey part. I am impatient so I hate waiting in line for anything. Since I am only going for a few days I will take a carry on bag. I am in love with my monogrammed travelers bag, as it has enough room for everything I need. Plus I like anything that I can monogram. When I travel I do not travel lightly, ever, but I like to take as fewer things as possible onto the plane. I always take a big tote to stuff small accessories like ear phones, iPad case and a charger in. I also want to be comfortable on the plane, but not look like a train ran over me twice– this blush sweater, cute flats, and of course my favorite Barbour jacket is the right amount of comfortability and chic. I know you can not take food into the airport, but these snacks from Nourishsnacks are my newest obsession. They are filling, delicious and healthy!
What are some of your “must haves” for traveling?
